How Can You Be in Two Places at Once When You’re Not Anywhere at All – Firesign Theatre

How Can You Be in Two Places at Once When You’re Not Anywhere at All is a 1969 comedy album by the Firesign Theatre. It’s certainly my favorite comedy record. The two sides have some cross-references but are very different.

Side 1 is “How Can You Be in Two Places at Once When You’re Not Anywhere at All”, an imaginative tale that starts with the purchase of a car.

Side 2 is “The Further Adventures of Nick Danger”, a parody of 1940s radio crime stories.

There are lots of cultural references to things like the Beatles and drugs. I think it wouldn’t mean as much to people who didn’t live through this era.

Baseball in Pics on single-season shutout leaders since 1920

Nobody pitches shutouts often now since nobody pitches many complete games and more. Only one item on this list is later than 1978.

Bob Gibson’s 1968 season was amazing. I have posted on it elsewhere on the blog.

The Cardinals won 97 games, Gibson’s ERA was only 1.12 and he still only went 22-9. How did he lose any games with great performances on the NL championship team?
